Our Family Faith program will be offered one Thursday a month, from 4:30 - 6 p.m. The dates for 2018-19 are listed below. This program is for families and children/youth in elementary and middle school.

KSCCs Families in GenFaith and Family Faith are also able to register their child(ren) in a Kids Small Christian Community (KSCC) group. KSCCs are extra opportunities for children to gather with their peer groups and work on the textbook. KSCCs are optional. They are not required. KSCCs meet at a time and place convenient for the group. KSCC registration will start in September for those who are interested.

At least one parent is required to attend every session with their child(ren).

Fee: $150Payment plans are welcome!

Please note that the Family Faith classes will not begin registration until we have catechists for each grade-level class. If you would like to sign up to serve as a catechist for Family Faith, please let us know.

What's the difference between Family Faith and Generations of Faith? Although both Family Faith and Generations of Faith are family learning models, there are a few differences between them.

The time Family Faith is offered once a month from 4:30 to 6:00pm, usually the first Thursday of the month. (See above for the exact dates.) Generations of Faith is from 6:00pm to 8:15pm, usually the 2nd Wednesday of the month. (See the Generations of Faith page for exact dates.)

The cost GenFaith and Family Faith have the same basic family cost ($150), but GenFaith has an additional Hospitality Fee ($90) This is because a sit down, family meal is served each month at GenFaith. The Hospitality Fee goes towards the meal and various incidentals around it.

Volunteering Because we serve a meal, we have always asked families in GenFaith to help prepare, serve and clean up after the meal. Each family can choose which months work best for them; we just ask for help once in the Fall and once in the Spring. Each family can also choose whether they want to prepare (which means they will come in before the session to help) and serve, or clean up (during part of the session.) At each GenFaith, we have a Lead Hospitality Volunteer who oversees all the kitchen duties and assigns tasks to volunteers.This is a great way to get to know other families volunteering with you.

the length Each GenFaith session is 45 minutes longer than the Family Faith session, giving us 30 minutes for a meal and about 20 minutes for a service project. The extra 20 minutes gives us a chance to introduce an agency we are helping that month, and do a project to support them.

High School Teens in 9th - 12th grade are able to register for GenFaith as their RE program. Participation counts towards the 2 year pre-confirmation requirement. Students preparing for Confirmation are also able to do their preparation through GenFaith.
